RUSH: Now, you realize this attack in Turkey at the Ataturk airport -- by the way, Ataturk is the guy Turkey was named after. He was a big, big, powerful, mean dude, something like Frank Ataturk. I don't know what his first name was. Anyway, do you know that the guy that runs Turkey now, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, although it's not pronounced that way. I've only heard Erdogan pronounced correctly once, and I don't remember how. The guy has practically implemented Sharia law throughout Turkey.
This is the point. And if he hasn't completed it yet, that's the objective. Turkey is gonna become full-fledged Sharia, and yet ISIS still hit them, still hit them at the airport.
Greetings, my friends, and great to have you here. Oh, yeah. Sorry. Dittocam's on. Forgot to take -- can't do it all here. You know, it's up to me, why doesn't some of this stuff end up being automated in this era? Anyhow, sorry. It's on now. It's 800-282-2882 if you want to be on the program, and the email address,ElRushbo@eibnet.com.
And since it is awkward to try to blame guns for this attack, given that Turkey practically has banned its citizens from owning firearms, the Drive-Bys and the rest of the Obama administration are scrambling to come up with somebody to blame here. The media is pretty much ignoring the attack altogether, just assuming that this is the new norm now.
But really, they can't go after guns here. They can't go after guns. This is one of the reasons why the Drive-Bys, you might expect this to be wall-to-wall coverage. It's a terror attack. And Trump has said some pretty powerful things about it. You would think they'd -- but they're not. Why are they not wall-to-wall with this?
Now, they might have been in certain places last night, but you have to admit, they didn't cover this like usual, normal terror attacks. I'm telling you one of the reasons why -- you can be snarky all you want, you can be cynical all you want -- is because there's no way to advance the gun control agenda here. Even in Turkey, they're on the way to having Sharia law. It's practically impossible for law-abiding people to get guns in Turkey anyway. So this just kind of illustrates what will happen if gun control, if they eliminate the Second Amendment here, it's not gonna stop acts of terror. It's not gonna stop acts of crime.
It isn't going to stop anything like this, and the Democrats and the media, they all know that, folks. It's just misdirection. They want guns out of everybody's hands for reasons unrelated to what they claim to be interested in. They want to save lives. No, it's not about that. They want to reduce crime. No, it's not about that. That's not why they want to get rid of the Second Amendment, and that's not why they want you to have to give up your gun.
Now, John Kerry, by the way, served in Vietnam, has come up with an explanation. In fact, he's even leapt to conclusions and said that ISIS was behind the attack. Now, Kerry calls them Daesh because he wants to seem smarter than everybody else. You and I call it ISIS. Obama calls it ISIL, and Kerry calls it Daesh, D-a-e-s-h, because that's the term the French like. I'm not making that up. Daesh is the term that the French like, so that's what Kerry uses, and because it's, in his mind, much more sophisticated to use the term Daesh. It also conveys more respect for the group than to simply call them the derisional ISIS.
But the real kicker is that John Kerry, who once served in Vietnam, said this latest attack is proof that ISIS is losing. Well, because they're getting desperate. They're getting desperate. They had to attack a country they practically run anyway. It shows how desperate they are.
Now, the irony is that is exactly the kind of thing US generals used to say during the Vietnam War. In fact, the generals at the time said that the Tet offensive was a sign of how desperate the North Vietnamese and Vietcong were. And actually they were telling the truth, unlike Kerry, but in reality the North Vietnamese only won because of defeatists like Kerry. I don't want to get sidetracked with that, but that was a victory that was a defeat snatched from the jaws of victory by the likes of John Kerry, who served in Vietnam.
No, no, no. Folks, I'm not making this up. Al-Qaeda actually sent out an operational memo to its jihadist groups urging them in further acts of terror, do not kill, do not hit minorities. Because if you hit minorities they're gonna blame conservatives, Second Amendment, guns, and the terrorists won't get their due credit. So from now on acts of terror, only hit white people, because hate crimes against them are permitted, and the media will play it up. White people deserve to be hit, deserve to be the victims of crime and acts of terror because they have for so long been the unfair, unjust, immoral majority throughout most of the nations that are imbued with Western civilization. If you think that's an exaggeration, it isn't. That is exactly how the Democrat Party of today and the American left looks at things.
White Christians who found America, they deserve all this grief because they caused so much for so many hundreds of years. I'm not... It's the only way that you can understand the true motivation of these people. In other words, it's impossible for minorities, impossible for people of color to be ever guilty of hate crimes. Because their only crimes are justified. Their crimes are justifiable. It's retribution and payback for years and decades and maybe even centuries of oppressive behavior at the hands of the white majority.
Not just here. Not just here.
The UK, all throughout Western civilization. That is the mode of thinking. Why do you think immigration is happening? Why do you think only certain kinds of people are allowed to legally immigrate? Have you noticed that when it comes to immigration we ride herd on legal immigration pretty damn hard, and who is it that really is subject to most of the limits there? Have to say it's white immigrants. But when it comes to illegal immigration and open borders, if you happen to be a minority or person of color or whatever?
"Come on in! Come on in! Because it's time for you to get your payback now for all the ways you've been mistreated by the evil people that founded and ran the United States of America for so long." It was Mustapha Kamal Ataturk, the founder and first president of Turkey. I was wrong when I said it was Frank. (I mean, I knew it wasn't Frank.) Mustapha Kamal Ataturk. Let me tell you something, the guy was a bad actor. You didn't want to mess with him. I mean, he's a serious, serious...

RUSH: Have you noticed in the aftermath of the terror attack at Ataturk airport, they don't do that? There aren't any vigils? There aren't any candlelit ceremonies; there aren't any pictures of whatever. They haven't stopped everything to have an ongoing memorial.
They just got back up and picked up the pieces and started operating the airport again as though that was yesterday, which it was. Not even the Drive-Bys have noticed this. in fact, grab audio sound bite number seven. Don't worry. I know I've interrupted myself, but I have not lost my place. Audio sound bite number seven, CBS This Morning. This is Holly Williams reporting about the terror attack at the Ataturk airport in Istanbul.
WILLIAMS: If you look behind me, you can see what appears to be damage from one of the blasts, but come over here and you can see that the airport is operational. Less than 24 hours after this attack, it's full of passengers. This is one of the busiest airports in the world. If you look over here, you can see that there is a lot of shattered glass in this area. It's not clear whether this is from gunfire, whether that's a bullet that's done that or shrapnel from one of the blasts. Now, the Turkish prime minister, Binali Yildirim, said there are indications that this was the work of ISIS, but so far there's been no claim of responsibility.
RUSH: Now, folks, I'm telling you that's noteworthy here that these Muslim countries don't spend any time on vigils, lighting candles, singing songs, laying wreaths of flowers. They don't spend days and days trying to figure out the motive. They didn't convene any on-the-spot seminar saying, "Why do they hate us?" 'Cause they already know why this happened. They already know who did it. They already know why, and everybody's up and back to their business here. (interruption)
Oh, they're praying it was from a bullet so they could focus on the guns, but everybody knows bomb control doesn't work.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Look, I don't want to mislead anybody. Ataturk is actually... It's a name that denotes "father of the Turks," and the name was granted to Kemal Ataturk in 1934 and forbidden to any other person by the Turkish Parliament. Now, the reason Ataturk, Kemal Ataturk was and is so highly reputed, is he was attempting to modernize... That's not the right word. Well, it is. For lack of a better way of saying it, he was trying to make Islam compatible with the modern twentieth century world.
I mean, they think it was ISIS, and ISIS attacks infidels and nonbelievers, so there's some political problem that ISIS has with Turkey. It could involve the Syria war and who's funding here, who's buying oil from who, and who isn't. So this may have ramifications simply beyond the tenets of Islam, not excluding aspects of Islam in the attack, but it may be a little bit more than that. I guess we just rely on what Kerry said, that it just means they're losing, that they did this, and that they're desperate, is why they did this.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: President Obama is in Ottawa, Canada. Do you know he called Turkish president, Recep Tayyip Erdogan? He didn't call Rick Scott in Florida after Mateen blew up the gay bar in Orlando. Took him awhile. But he called Erdogan right off the bat. Anyway he's in Ottawa, North American Leaders Summit. And after a meeting with the Mexican president, Enrique Pena Nieto, President Obama spoke with reporters about the terror attack in Istanbul. No, he didn't blame it on a video. Not this one.
OBAMA: I had a chance to speak to President Erdogan earlier today to discuss with him not only how heartbroken we have been by the images of the injured and those killed, but also to reaffirm our strong commitment to partner with Turkey, with NATO, with the broad-based alliance that we structured around the world to fight ISIL. It's an indication of them being unable to govern those areas that they've taken over; that they're gonna be defeated in Syria, they're gonna be defeated in Iraq.
This guy Nakoula Nakoula? They found this guy somewhere in California. They put him in jail. They put the producer that nobody ever heard of... They put him in jail. They scared the daylights out of him. He went along with it. He was acquiescent as he could be. The things lining that just didn't happen in this country, and were they to happen somebody else they would be impeached.
But to jail an innocent person on a false, bogus charge to carry forth a lie that is designed to protect yourself as president and your campaign? So now when I hear this guy speak about terrorism and the aftermath of attacks, I just don't believe anything. "We cringe, we cry, we join you in tears for the loss of life," and so forth? It sounds like he's more upset about what happened in Turkey that he's upset when these things happen in this country.
Sorry. It just comes across that way to me.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: You know, if ISIS is losing, I would hate to see what happens when they're winning. I'd hate to see what that looks like. But Obama and Kerry say they're losing.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Now, I want to expand on a point that I made in the first hour of the program about Turkey and ISIS. I found it fascinating that ISIS, if it is ISIS -- and everybody thinks it is -- hit Turkey, because Turkey has been one of the biggest allies ISIS could have ever had. Are you aware of that? (interruption) You're not? Now, that's interesting, 'cause you are a news junkie like I am, and you're not aware of this. Well, let me run through some things for you.
And everybody, "Oh, my God, the guy is dangerous, oh, my God." But Turkey has been assisting ISIS in a wide variety of ways. At times Turkey has denied us the use of their airspace in Iraq and in other theaters of war. Turkey has been an off-and-on ally, quote, unquote, you know, as Obama has drawn red lines and then moved the red line. Turkey has wanted to present themselves as an ally of ours. But make no mistake about it. President Erdogan is aiming Turkey at a Sharia nation. That's where he wants to go. He is a Sharia law, full-fledged, one percent Islamist.
So what's ISIS doing hitting him? What's ISIS doing blowing up the Ataturk airport in Istanbul? Now, the reason I ask this is because our shortsighted, incompetent leadership in this country actually tells us that we can prevent more terrorist attacks against us if we would become more tolerant them. Do they not? We cannot call them Islamist terrorists. We cannot call them radical Islamist extremists. We cannot even say that they engage in terrorism. We have gone to the realm of impracticality and impossibility to avoid offending these people, or worse, whatever might be going on.
But regardless, Obama and his State Department and even the defense department are bending over backwards to give these people the benefit of the doubt. Whenever there's a terrorist attack, it's not. Whenever ISIS does it or militant Islam does it, no, they didn't. We do seminars trying to examine what we have done to cause them to hate us so much.
And if they hit Turkey, if they hit the Istanbul airport, the Ataturk airport in Istanbul, in a country that is on the road to becoming full-fledged Sharia, then how in the world is the strategy Obama and Hillary employ gonna be effective at all in stopping them here? And you know what their strategy is? Take away your guns.
So we have the latest attack, which is the attack on the gay club in Orlando, and, no, we're not gonna call 'em, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. He was radicalized. He was an American citizen and he was a fine young man until he got radicalized by that out of control internet. Islam had nothing to do with it, militant or otherwise. No, no, no. The religion of peace, they don't do these kinds of things. Instead, we need to take your guns away. That is the Obama and Hillary solution to these things, oh, yeah, and not saying "radical Islam." Oh, yeah, and not saying "radical Islamic terrorism."
Obviously it's a joke. They don't know what they're doing. Well, I take it back. Obama knows what he's doing, and maybe Hillary, too. But the point is, what they want us to believe they think they're doing is totally ineffective. It doesn't have a prayer of working. You know, Hillary's out there saying, we need smart diplomacy. We need to do smart power. And that means empathizing with our enemy, understanding their grievances, like we understand the grievances of homosexuals, like we understand the grievances of African-Americans. We must learn to understand the grievances of ISIS.
Why? Because ultimately everything's our fault. Everybody who hates us has legitimate reasons for hating us, according to Obama and Hillary. We've been too big for our britches, we've been too rich, and our riches came from theft and colonialism, not from genuine accomplishment and achievement. You didn't build that. Then go through these things, my blood's boiling here as I remind myself of what these people tell us, and I remind myself how they think about us.
If Recep Tayyip Erdogan cannot placate ISIS, how are we ever gonna be able to? And placate is clearly what John Kerry, who once served in Vietnam, and Barack Hussein O and Hillary Clinton think is the only thing we have to do is placate them. Because we're at fault, see. Our attitude all these years, our braggadocios pomposity, our overly confident, bigger than the rest of the world attitude has justified all this kind of stuff.
So we gotta find a way to placate them, let them know that it's a new day in America where our current leadership does not hate them and, in fact, agrees with them on many of their grievances about the United States. And that's supposed to mollify them. It's supposed to tame them. It is supposed to cause them to stop attacking us.
It hasn't. We've had a major attack every year of Obama's Regime. I guess they're telling us the truth. ISIS and Al-Qaeda and whoever else, that is the only way they stop is after we convert. That's what they say. The only way this stops is when the infidels convert. Well, that's not happening.
So what are we gonna have to do? We're not gonna convert. If this nation ever goes Sharia, it's gonna be because of the aggressive use of force. You know, I take that back. There is a segment of this population already that would surrender. I have no doubt that there's a segment of the population that would surrender rather than fight it. But we're not yet anywhere near a majority of Americans with that attitude.
